Born in Levittown, PA, Loretta Allen has gone to extremes to be anything but typically suburban. Early on, Loretta took to the road with a beat-up old Ovation and a even-more-beat-up Jetta. She played at gas stations earning her daily gas money to the next town. In California she realized she'd found her second home. Her sound is smooth, full, and melodic with heavy influences from folk music and good ol' rock n roll. People come back for the heartfelt story-songs and lively performances.
